@alikon ?

I solved this here by adding
$data['hits'] = 0;
line 922 of /administrator/components/com_content/Model/ArticleModel.php
but I think this is just a hack as default hits is set as 0 is db.

hmmm... see #23638...

I get the same issue when saving articles on Joomla 4, alpha 7 with the trial account with cloud access. Receive "Error
Save failed with the following error: Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'hits' at row 1".

I get the same message when adding to the contacts component as well.
